Yes, this is very real, and also occurs in the manga and I presume in the new anime as well.

Well, it is a kid's anime, but

SPOILER: Show

They all die at the end of the first season of the original anime and came back t life sans thier powers and memories of being Sailor Senshi, something the creator wanted to do in the manga, but because it was geared towards girls, the idea was "too violent." Unfortunately, when the anime was originally released in the US, that two part season finale was hacked to bits to seem like it they didn't die.

Yet they didn't edit this scene out of the anime, which still makes me laugh because of the utter ridiculousness. Chibiausa just wants Usagi's Silver Crystal, and the toy gun to a child (or most people) is a pretty good motivational tool.

Still no news on the Crystal season 4 movies. But, on the bright side Viz will be releasing the first half of SuperS on Bluray and DVD on April 10th. I'm gonna preorder the Bluray boxset from Barnes and Noble soon as a late birthday gift to myself as it'll be released a month after my birthday. I'm excited to finally hear the dub of the SuperS special. I also hope Viz will release the S and SuperS movies in theatres. I saw the R movie in theatres and it was awesome. Plus, thanks to my dad I was able to get a complete set of all 5 art cards and the full size and mini posters. I'm excited for when Sailor Stars gets dubbed though I'm curious as to how they'll cast the Sailor Starlights. :/

I remember this. It makes me wish I wasn't so clumsy when it comes to ice skating. XD

Well that episode was never broadcast in America because 4kids scrubbed out any references to guns, drugs, alcohols, or sexually suggestive content. They nerfed so many Yu-Gi-Oh cards and characters for being too graphic or scary.

Yeah I heard that Yu-Gi-Oh got real heavy editing and just damn...like that's huge double standards if they let him keep his drill penis robot its like saying hey kids female naked forms are utterly forbidden and we are going to clothe them but huge phallic cocks aren't...enjoy kids.

Anywhere can be paradise as long as you have the will to live. After all, you are alive, so you will always have the chance to be happy.

Dic (the guys who localized Sailor Moon) had it's own censorship issues. But nothing on the level of 4kids. At least they let Chibi-Moon keep her (very realistic) toy guns.

So, uh, this is happening in March: https://sailormoonlive.com (This is based on the final season/arc of the anime/manga, for those who don't follow SM that much.)

Nice to see the Sera Myus (Sailor Moon musicals) acknowledged Stateside! I probably won't be able to attend because of life, but it's just surreal to see how popular a once (seemingly) niche thing like Sailormoon is, these days

I just found out last night that my local movie theatre will be showing this in March. I'm so excited for it and I'm gonna try to get whatever promo goodies they're giving out and a poster. I will probably post a review of the musical in this thread if anyone is interested in it.

I just saw the musical today at my local movie theatre with a friend of mine. It was really good and the costumes were gorgeous, well except for Usagi's wedding dress at the end of the musical. Galaxia's actress had very creepy eyes. There are two notable things I will point out though. First they used the term Meatball Head for Usagi in the subs twice. It felt very nostalgic to see the term Meatball Head being used again. XD Also, after the performance there was a medley of songs which had no English subs.

I finished the manga recently. It's entertaining and fairly good imo, without being spectacular.But I really like it. I want to watch the anime now, but being in Germany that is difficult. It costs about 600€...

In the States, we'll be finally getting the kanzenban Sailor Moon manga (the 3rd edition) this Fall, too. https://www.amazon.com/Sailor-Moon-Eter ... 632361523/ It was supposed to be released in January, but was pushed back. (Hopefully for a tweaked/better translation?)
